The president of Congress' Bihar unit, Ashok Choudhary, today accused "some" AICC leaders of fuelling rebellion against him with the "false propaganda" that he was making attempts to split the party.
"Some AICC leaders are behind the crisis in the Congress in Bihar...They are fuelling rebellion against me by alleging that I am making attempts to break the party in favour of Nitish Kumar's JD(U) to replace me from PCC president's post with their favourite," Ashok Choudhary told PTI.
He, however, did not identify anyone but said "they would be unmasked very soon".
